Tennessee (13-5, 4-3) picked up a big conference road win on Saturday, defeating South Carolina (12-7, 3-4) 70-63.

The Vols were powered by a huge offensive night from Lamonte Turner, who scored a game-high 25 points. Grant Williams and Admiral Schofield also scored in double figures with 14 and 12, respectively.

The most surprising performance of the night, though, came from freshman forward Derrick Walker, who scored 10 points and added four rebounds which all seemed to come in big moments.

After trading baskets in the opening minutes, Tennessee used a 7-0 run to take a 16-7 lead early in the game.
